I looted a +25 2h counter attack AA.
Before I do anything with it, I want to know if it works.

I had a simlar question about a +9 one....I attached it and long behold I didn't really see a major difference...however sometimes in the combat box you can see " you counterattack"
I say hold on to it.....or if there is someone willing to give you some serious cash for it sell it.
I am 50/50 on this issue with counter attack.

2-h Counter attack is a broken mod along with 1-h/polearm/etc counterattack
However ..
Just "Counter attack" works

If it says just plain counterattack, and your not already capped at 125, then yes it will work. Now, here's the thing. Counterattack only "fires" half as often as dodge. Go to the carbineer forum for more detail. There is however, a good reason why. Counterattack does not "steal" your next combat round like dodge. Dodge basically lets you avoid all damage more often at the cost of loosing an attack round. Counterattack works less often but you don't loose that next attack round.
BTW, if I had any money in this game, I'd pay a pretty penny for that attachment.

mmmmm, now those I don't think work. Here is the first rule of thumb regarding attachments. If the skill exsists in a skill box, it works. The problem is there is no two-handed counterattack skill. Just counterattack. Its like splitting hairs, but that maybe all the difference in the world.

yeah, I know that's the reason stuff like 2h damage mods and whatnot don't work. It's such bullshlt

I have Sungurad that my master passed down to me in the first month of the game. it has +25 2 hand counterattack... and i have some +9 and 11s somewhere. But are the broken ones supposed to be working after the pacth? if so im going to buy them all now while i can, cuz they are cheap.

I just picked up novice swordsman myself and found one of these last night. Glad I haven't added it to my armor yet. Any idea if and when these will get fixed?
